Hi,

I think one of the best resources showing how networking and containers
works, is the tests for containers and networking ;-)
From them I also based my setup which you can see a slightly old
version of at https://github.com/kampfschlaefer/nixconfig.

Also you already found the 13-char limit on container names, which is a
result of the 16-char limit of network interface names in linux and the
devices are vb-<name> or ve-<name> for the containers… I was planning
to add an assertion there but got sidetracked by life and a 3D printer.

Have fun,

Arnold
